I added Mos_Eisley_Bartender to my Yahoo contact list. BTW, I think Wuhrer is the name of the bartender.

Hey, back before you were born, I was thinking to myself: "wouldn't it be interesting if there were a game on this uninvented global communications system and one of the characters had multiple personalities?"

So trout right back at you.

 		Just a NOTE..

Mo Eisley Bartender is a player like the rest of us, he is not in game.

No need to add him to your list...

If you guys every bother to come on in to #acheron you will see what I am talking about, instead of sitting in your underware, lurking around.. But Participating wiht the rest of us..

Lurking around is no FUN... Being part of the action is where the action is...

SO BIG TROUT TO YOU ALL...

And for all you Guest and Lurkers and Newbies.. Before you post, it would be wise to drop by the #Acheron Chat room and tell us you assumption so we can tell you if its been already talked about.

Wise advice, young padawan. You might yet replace danman as The One Who Leads, As Long As It's Before The Streetlights Come On. We would be most proud.

Sorry don't have much time for chat anymore. I wish I did. I have a 14-month old girl that I chase around all day and a husband to spend time with at night. And don't knock us lurkers. Chat isn't where it's all at. Wink I hardly ever dropped in at #ctw and had plenty of fun with that game. Some of us on the lurking post-only daytime crew can come up with some pretty good spec too!

Maybe some of the chat people should post more on the board to help us pathetic lurkers. Wink

Hey now, I will always be the king of the "As Long As It's Before The Streetlights Come On" leaders. If you'd like to set up a local Acheron charter, I'm sure it could be arranged, but remember, there ARE monthly dues.

 		mos_eisley_bartendar = me. Note strategic placement of the letter "a."

mos_eisley_bartender = someone totally different. I met him once, total jerk. Not in-game.

The more you know!

 		So I finally got yahoo to let me play chess. It was my stupid Zone Alarm that was preventing me the whole time from loading it. Anyway, I played two games with Mephisto...

The first game went on for a bit. I couldn't get yahoo to email me the history of the game, but I took a screenshot which I attached. He told me it was a good game, although he won Wink

The second game

Quote:
1. e2e4 g8f6 2. d2d3 b8c6 3. c1f4 d7d5 4. f1e2 c8g4 5. e2xg4


At this point Mephisto ended the game and he said

Quote:
Now see. For pieces I have to end game when you do stuff like that. Once again Dr. Jomes we see there is nothing you possess which I cannot take away.

I'd have to agree with Varin on the Lurking scene...
Although my brief chatting experience has been great, I really don't have the ability to jump into chat all the time.

I still think I've got some tidbits of helpful advice left, and really appreciate that all the days' ideas make it back to this board. Perhaps a SPEC section for Acheron would be appropriate?

For instance:
Totally ridiculous SPEC, but according to Google, that line is from 'Beetlejuice 2'.

I have a feeling there's something else a little more reputable to which even this is referring.

I'm in #acheron all the time, but I still agree with you guys (Varin/mysteryjones) about this issue. I don't think you have to know about every little thing going in the chatroom to post here. The way I see it, if we're SPECing in the chat room, and it's important enough for everyone to know, then someone in the room should post it to the forums. I really think, given it's universal medium, the forums are the real "doctrine" of the team. I would say before posting something, we should just be familiar with what's already up on the forums, just to make sure it's not trout, etc.

If you want to chill out in #acheron, it would certainly benefit you by helping you know every single thing that's going on the second that it's happening. But as for this "log on #acheron and ask permission before posting idea" : I say "no dice"...
